First of all a mask does nada. I wore a mask everywhere I went and still ended up with COVID. Didn't even know i had it or suspect it until I lost my sense of smell. Confirmed it afterwards with an antibody test. I have had colds worse than this. I did have lingering tiredness for about 10 days and it was significant feeling of being tired, but it really wasn't anything. Crazy that some people get it and die...then people like my wife and I barely feel a thing.

They dont protect either.

The one segment of the population that isn't wearing mask regularly or social distancing is the homeless.

You would think that since the 'pandemic' is so lethal that the homeless would be dropping like flies.

Come on man. No one is perfect in their mask wearing. At some point you were around family, friends, and/or strangers without it. The problem isn't those wearing masks. Are masks a be all prevention? Of course not. But, they absolutely help. Glad you only had minor symptoms.

Losing Kamara is big. I do have full confidence in Murray. Heck, I would give Hill some snaps at RB against the Panthers. He's succeeded at every thing else. A couple of runs. A couple of patterns. Give opposing teams something else to look at.

I wonder if Payton will use this week to evaluate who to call up at RB, Dwayne Washington or Ty Montgomery.

I don't know where you are getting your information. They are dying in numbers that are not being reported. Several homeless shelters have had major outbreaks. Without regular healthcare, tracking of the numbers are near impossible. Our church food pantry has learned of several deaths from one time regulars that had off and on housing/homeless situations. They are registered with the state to keep them from double dipping the system.

COVID-19 is 'a crisis within a crisis' for homeless people

"The Howard Center spent three months investigating COVID-19's impact on homeless people, analyzing data to predict which homeless populations around the country would be most vulnerable. It identified 43 counties that would likely struggle in the pandemic, several of which, such as Imperial in California and Maricopa in Arizona, went on to develop some of the highest infection rates in the country."
